Joy Reid; Kirk with Vance (File photos) Joy Reid, an American political commentator and television host has suggested that JD Vance could leave his wife, linking her claim to an online rumour wave that has followed the vice president, his wife Usha Vance and conservative commentator Erika Kirk for weeks. Reid made the remarks on the I\u2019ve Had It podcast, arguing that some MAGA supporters would not accept Usha Vance, who is Indian American, as a future first lady. <\/p>\n

Reid said, \u201cThey can\u2019t have the successor to MAGA be the guy with the Brown Hindu wife. That\u2019s why he\u2019s throwing his wife under the bus. Poor Usha. Or she\u2019s in on it,\u201d she said.”You not doing that right thing. You’re supposed to be a widow, you in leather pants? That’s not widow wear,” she added. She then referred to Erika Kirk\u2019s moment with Vance, echoing online commentary. \u201cHolding on the back of his head and rubbing on his head,\u201d Reid said, adding that she would be suspicious if any woman held her husband like that. Reid later framed it as political strategy: \u201cWouldn\u2019t it be the most perfect fairy tale, MAGA fairy tale, if he finally sees the light that he needs a White queen instead of this Brown Hindu?\u201d An emotional interview, a brief hug and a missing ringThe rumours began on 22 November 2025, when Erika Kirk spoke to Megyn Kelly in Glendale, Arizona. Kirk discussed her grief after Charlie Kirk\u2019s murder and said she had prayed she might have been pregnant on the day he died. Within hours, her words were torn from that context and repackaged as a \u201cconfession,\u201d with social media claiming she was signalling something new.Almost a month earlier, on 29 October 2025, Erika had introduced JD Vance at a Turning Point event in Mississippi. The two exchanged a brief hug on stage. Once the pregnancy speculation took off, that hug was replayed and slowed down as if it contained hidden meaning.A third moment fed the rumours on 19 November 2025, when Usha Vance attended an event without her wedding ring, which the internet quickly framed as a sign of marital strain between her and the vice president.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Joy Reid; Kirk with Vance (File photos) Joy Reid, an American political commentator and television host has suggested…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":309532,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[49,48,75,138349,138347,138348,138350,348,133077],"class_list":["post-309531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-erika-kirk-controversy","tag-jd-vance-speculation","tag-joy-reid-podcast","tag-online-rumors","tag-tv","tag-usha-vance"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309531","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=309531"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309531\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/309532"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=309531"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=309531"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=309531"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
